Andrew H. Van de Ven
You probably want to call the page Andrew H. Van de Ven instead of Https://netfiles.umn.edu/users/avandeve/www/AHVHOME.htm, and try to write an original article instead of cutting and pasting Van de Ven's biography from his web page. Take a look at this link about writing articles for Wikipedia, it should help. Thanks! -- ArglebargleIV 00:33, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
